HL Deb 24 July 1956 vol 199 c97
EARL FORTESCUE

My Lords, I have to inform your Lordships that it has been arranged, through the usual channels, that we shall, if necessary, sit through dinner to-night, but it is hoped that we shall finish by eight o'clock.

VISCOUNT ALEXANDER OF HILLS-BOROUGH

My Lords, we should have finished much earlier if not so much business had been put down before the main business.
